Speaking of the monster, does anyone know where he’s placed all of the homeless people who were living on the streets in DC? What are the long term plans for these people?

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

What the fuck is the point of paying money to a police department if they won’t protect people from hostile masked kidnappers?

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead:

House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing

Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year

Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs

DOGE cut off Social Security Administration spending so now workers have to use their own money to buy office supplies.

How DOGE’s grand plan to remake Social Security is backfiring
The agency is abandoning an initiative aimed at preventing fraud, the latest example of a failed effort by Elon Musk’s disruptive cost-cutting team.

Musk fired important and necessary employees in order to pretend to save money. The Rubber Stamp Republicans allowed him to degrade Americs either out of cowardice or malice.

The one person a woman is married to is more likely to kill her than all the illegal immigrants in the country combined and yet none of our laws or policies seem to recognize that fact

Twelve hours into this @energycommerce.bsky.social debate, they’re saying the quiet parts out loud.

Their plan is to “clean up the rolls” and rip healthcare away from millions of Americans. ⬇️

It does NOT ban taxing tips.
It does NOT ban taxing overtime.
It does NOT ban taxing Social Security.
